Well, what are you waiting for? Drop in, ask a few questions, get a crunchwrap supreme, and you're GOOD TO GO!

This isn't a lie!
Espn radio 1000 in chicago is reporting that the reds are on the verge of making a multi team deal that includes Willis and also could include another allstar they wouldn't announce who. They said it'll be confirmed tomorrow morning.
I dont know how this works te reds got the best of the deal. Unless they have amazing prospects....

Anyone who was listening at about 1:55 you would know what I'm talking about.
I'm sure you'll hear callers about this so listen.
WOW

If this is true i doubt he'll deny it, But if there is a trade he thinks is unfair he can deny the trade. The trade has to be approved by the Commish. This probably would be accepted.

Still doesn't mean if it is true, but if the Orioles are looking to get rid of Tejada's contract they coudl want Felipe and the Hat. And if we gave the Fish Kearns and Homer maybe it would get us Willis?

Oh no, I am almost starting to kinda believe this. Somebody slap me and don't let me be this stupid.

Re: Kearns on the block

The thing that makes me think it isn't true is the involvement of Hatteberg. It just doesn't make good sense. Why would the Orioles want a guy with a one year contract? There would have to be a prospect heading to Baltimore too.

Right. Hatteberg makes zero sense for the O's. They're not a contender, he's a free agent at the end of the year, and they already have two other aging veteran first basemen.

Votto, on the other hand, makes a lot of sense for the Orioles.

They are actually a pretty decent team considering they just had a fire sale, with the players they have it is possible they could be contending for the playoffs in a year or two and a guy like Willis is exactly what a team would want at the top of their rotation.

Logic says the Marlins won't be trading Willis for exactly those reasons. And the Reds won't be trading Homer Bailey for obvious reasons.

Re: Kearns on the block

Espn radio is reporting it.
Didnt say Tejada though all they said was there was a multi team deal and the reds got Willis and may have got a player on the allstar team. Hmmm maybe tejada??
Will be anounced tomorrow including the prospects. Do you guys have prosects cuz this trade would cause riots and raise eyebrows.

Alright you have been a pretty solid poster on this board, did YOU YOURSELF actually hear this?

And I advise you to tell the truth.
